O’ Mirror
Mirror Mirror on the wall
you have been fooling me, after all.
What i saw was just a reflection;
this vanity needed much correction.
One fine day i met those eyes
i could see through, all your lies
someone showed me, the real i
now i know, who am i
Hey mirror you are nothing just another glass
you don’t even let the light to pass
O’ mirror
keep hanging on that wall
Now I’m in love and this is some fall
Mirror, mirror keep hanging on that wall

II.Two Half Loves
One strong Lock,
Unmoved, untouched
Guarding the jail
my youth, my pain, my past
With loyal fidelity
Vaulting
My ostrich – ness
One Solitary Key
petrified still
Telling the tale
of agony, of loneliness, of separation
With rusty skin
Covering
My cowardli-ness
Two half lives
Not able to tango
Just for me
Two half loves
Resisting union
Just for me
Let me now; Let me go
Open the lid
Free the spirit
Let me now; let me go
Bring the two
make them one
Let me now; Let me go
Embrace my beloved
And..
Face the truth
==========
III. What if…?
What if? My heart breaks like a shattered glass
What if? My worst nightmare comes true
Will I stop hoping..?
Will I stop dreaming..?
No Never..!!
What if? I get all the money I longed
What if? I get all the fame I desired
Will I stop praying..?
Will I stop learning..?
No Never..!!
What if? I lose every battle I fight
What if? I never get the fruits of my efforts
Will I stop fighting..?
Will I stop working..?
No Never..!
What if? I reach the pinnacle of Success
What if? I achieve things beyond my potential
Will I stop helping..?
Will I stop caring..?
No Never..!
When everything in me remains the same
Why think of what if..?
When everything around me happens for good
Why think of what if..?
When there is so much to experience
Why think of what if..?
When this present moment is so precious
Why think of what if..?
